Art News: Art of Leoni Bellagio

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) August 7, 2007 --

We’re excited to introduce to you spellbinding and electrifying art of Leoni Bellagio. Leoni is a European-born artist who has a large following of X-generation collectors. His art is new and fresh. Leoni is unlike any other artist. His art leaps over traditional boundaries, creating tantalizing mystique, which looks so realistic that the viewer feels as if the subjects will reach out and touch them. He is a true surrealist who is not bound by the rules of logic. It appears that Leoni lives in his own universe. Leoni’s art is unique and contemporary. The artist is still young, but has proven to have a good sales record, having sold more than 10,000 artworks world-wide. Leoni’s art is in demand and the public is captivated by it, no doubt about that. This month Leoni Bellagio Fine Art will release a new original artwork and Tru-Giclee reproductions from Leoni’s much anticipated “Cool as Ice” Series. He commented: “I have been wanting to create this series for quite a while, and now that I have the time, let’s see what’s going to unfold.” Surrealism has been dying since Dali's final touch. And today all we are left with is just a word “surrealism” without anyone really understanding what it is. Surrealism cannot be fully understood by dispassionately viewing its artworks or other cultural byproducts. To understand, appreciate and benefit from surrealism, one must embrace its philosophy, practice its methods and fully accept it into one's life. Surrealism is not a style of art, but a way of life. I am not a surrealist artist, but a surrealist who happens to be an artist. Many artists today call themselves surrealists, but what they do is actually abstract or pop art. My work is an example of true surrealism. Most of my art comes from my dreams, free of the conscious control of reason. I cannot explain what my creations are. All people see different meaning in my art. I'm a channel between dreams and reality.
